Uptown Locksmith Ottawa has been a long-time provider of commercial, residential and automobile locksmith services for Ottawa and the surrounding areas. Recently the company added commercial master key system rekey services to its offerings.

In today’s environment, safety is everything. People are, and unfortunately have to be, concerned about the safety of their homes and families, the security of their businesses, staff and business property. Add to that the transient nature of today’s workforce and there is a growing demand for commercial master key rekeying.

Uptown’s marketing manager says once employers had the benefit of long-term employees who were given trust and responsibility and stayed for many years with a company. Today, instead, trust must be given in order to keep a company operating, often before it is earned. When these trusted, key holding employees then leave, the company is faced with the prospect – yet again perhaps – of having to change their master key system.

Understanding how critical a business owner’s peace of mind is, and the importance of keeping a business running, regardless of issues such as these, Uptown Locksmith Ottawa has added the new master key system rekey service to its list of 24/7/365 services. The new service is additionally backed by the company’s 30-minute guarantee.

“When an employee leaves, either of their own volition or because they have been asked to, and a master key system is in place, the business has the dual challenge of replacing that staff member and of making sure their business remains secure.”

Even when an employee returns their master key, he says even a slight possibility that key has been duplicated, can mean rekeying is a regular worry.

Serving clients to the north into Gatineau, to the east through Gloucester and to the south through Barrhaven, Uptown Locksmith technicians provide a wide geographic coverage that encompasses a large number of commercial clients. “Our guarantee – on any service we provide – our reasonable prices and excellent service, allows us to become a trusted and reliable partner to many of our commercial clients and crucial to keeping their businesses running smoothly.”

Beyond its new service, the company is able to provide key cutting and emergency lock pick service and a full range of specifically commercial services including access control systems; installation, repair and service to safes; electronic keypads and keyless entry systems; file cabinet lock maintenance repair and upgrades; and security camera systems and CCTV. “We are experienced in the full range of commercial security needs, from the simplest to the most complex. We are pleased to add this new service, which rounds out the commercial offerings we provide to our customers in the Ottawa area.”
